Loxahatchee Wildlife Refuge — Roberta Cruger Like

Canoeing a Wild, Scenic River in Boynton Beach, Florida

Observe sandhill cranes, delicate ibis, and basking turtles along the banks of the Loxahatchee River as you canoe through the swamps, palm stands and mangrove estuaries of the only subtropical freshwater forest in the world. The Loxahatchee Wildlife Refuge is Florida's first designated Wild and Scenic River; for a narrated tour of the sleepy waterway, take the 44-passenger pontoon boat, the Loxahatchee Queen, available at Jonathan Dickinson State Park.
